* TakeThatAudience: Running through the whole review, but particularly when 2007 Critic sees the clipless reviews, echoing some viewer complaints that the Critic cannot "properly" review the film without clips. When 2015 Critic looks over at the ''Film/HocusPocus'' episode (in particular the song sequence), he sarcastically agrees (if one listens closely, the Critic is actually lampshading the film's problems in song form, true to the film's style).
** Later on, 2007 Critic's review gets mostly negative feedback to his surprise, with the argument being that the series has an UnpleasableFanbase.

* HalfwayPlotSwitch: Halfway into the episode, the Critic regrets his decision not to put in any effort into his review of ''Christmas with the Kranks'' thus far, and goes back to the present so that he can spend actual effort on what's left of it. The rest of the review's storyline focuses on the Critic of 2007 attempting a HostileShowTakeover so that he can continue the reviews ''his'' way.



* ItWillNeverCatchOn: 2015 Critic sarcastically notes that Luther's botox joke will never be a popular topic in other films (while showing other film clips mentioning it).

** Likewise, 2007 Critic refuses to accept how his future experimentation and departures would turn out:
-->'''2007 Critic:''' Who knows what this might lead to? Crossovers! Anniversary specials! A pointless feud with an angry gamer! And all of them will bomb!



* ManipulativeEditing: An in-universe example, where Malcolm & Tamara play the seizure-transition over & over again with the remote to cause Present!Critic to pass out.

Added DiffLines:

* SpoiledByTheFormat:[[invoked]] Brought up when the Critic violates the premise of the review by changing his mind about not putting in effort to review ''Christmas with the Kranks''.
-->'''Critic:''' Christ! I thought all these repetitive traditions would be great, but I'm sorry! I gotta return to effort!\\
'''Santa Christ:''' What?! You can't go back yet!\\
'''Critic:''' Why not?!\\
'''Santa Christ:''' Because you're supposed to learn your lesson by the end of the video. We're not even halfway through! Look at the little red border.\\
'''Critic:''' I don't care! I need to go back, right now!\\
'''Santa Christ:''' Ugh, fine. But we're violating the screenwriting lessons of Creator/ChrisColumbus.
